As always, there are several Art Walk Stops in the
downtown area. Every participating business is within
easy walking distance.

The Fashion Walk will feature individuals and couples
who are dressed in the Victorian manner. Everyone
is invited to dress in costume if they choose.  (It's really
fun to step back in time!)

The Winnsboro Center for the Arts is featuring the
"Gathering of Light" exhibition of Donna Page.

In addition, the following businesses will be welcoming
you with Victorian Yuletide cheer. . .

Art & Espresso
Sayadream Studio
Beauweevil's
Winnsboro Emporium
Liefie's
Silhouette Dressmaking
Keyring Gallery
StarDragonfly Herb Shop

3rd Friday Art Walk, Friday, Sept. 21, 6 pm - 9 pm is going to be a 50s-60s theme. As always, you can feel free to dress in your favorite "look" from that era.

Have a 50s-60s car?  Park it on Main, Market or Elm.  It'll be a photo-op people won't be able to resist.

Here are the Art Stop locations this month:

Art & Espresso
Sayadream Studio

Winnsboro Emporium
Liefie's
Silhouette Dressmaking
Keyring Gallery

Plus Winnsboro Center for the Arts will be open to serve popcorn and cider.
